My BB tag note I added long ago and reads: BB = Stanley, ca. 1939 - 1950 (This code only found on amber handled flat blade style screwdrivers, and a block plane; phillips screwdrivers of this same style and time period were found to have the I-circle code) - Note I-circle = Parker Mfg Co I...

Man, that is cool you have access to a PMI gun!

The topic and my comments were specifically non-rechargble disposable lithium batteries, but whatever. I've tried to disengage twice now; so one more time: You do you... I'm done with this.

^^^^

If it is different answers then you are relying on a delusional AI generated response. Do proper research. That "Cowboy" comment cuts both ways ... But again you do you... And this is one of the most ridiculous comparisons I can even imagine.

Great find! I have a Fractional box, would love to get the # box someday.

It's not uncommon for there to be small differences and even missed design changes in catalog drawings and even pics. If minor enough they didn't want to go to the expense of updating.

You are confusing the rechargeables, with the disposables; completely different tech. - But you do you.

Your're not listening - there is no risk of leakage from the disposable Lith cells ...

More to the point was the operator "under the influence" (pertinent considering where y'all work!)

I'm up to about 40...

For really small nails or brads, I have started using needle nose pliers to hold them.

I keep them in things that are stored permanently inside our car and rigs, and those temps get real high. I have one emergency flashlight still on the same battery for over 20 years. Keeping the electronics out of the heat; understandable. the batteries don't matter if Lith.

I carry a 4" Crescent in my left front pocket all the time. A small round magnet and a pair of nail clippers on that magnet, as all three get used regularly. (magnet for "is that iron/steel, or badly tarnished brass, or plated to fake it? testing.")

If you can clean everything adequately I'd leave the nut alone. that's just me as I don't believe in "fix till broke". (happens enough when you have to go that deep...)

If they use AA, AAA or 9V, use EverReady Lithium disposable batteries - no leaks, better discharge curve, and 10 - 20 year shelf life.

Try thinning some of it a bit to get a glossy smooth finish. Try it on a test piece...

Japanned or Japanning is a glossy black or near black finish applied to metals as a hard finish. its very resilient and many tools were "painted" with it. (its not exactly a paint.

I did the same with some water pipe. worked great. the cap did become dome shaped over time.

There wasn't a single advertised sale in my area today. you'd have thought it was a M-Th weekday... :wtf:
